Brooklands Cup - Week 45 Winner is Mark McCann
Kickboxing king Billy Murray has used a trophy presented to him to inaugurate a novel new year-long competition for young members of his celebrated ProKick Gym. The Brooklands ProKick Cup is presented each week through the next 52 weeks to the most improved ProKick kid of that week. A special shield has also been minted with space for 52 names. At the end of the year, the person with the most names on the shield will be presented with the Cup to keep for good, with their achievements immortalised in the shield which will go on display in the gym.
“I was presented with the cup by Mr McCartney, the Principal at Brooklands Primary School in Dundonald after a unique event at the school when I took 200 of the pupils through a specially tailored training class,” Murray explained. “I felt there was no better way to keep that cup as a celebration of the achievements of kids than to inaugurate the competition.
The cup now rotates weekly with the Prokick kids for the most improved junior kickboxer of the week.
“Each week we take good attitude, improvement in technique, respect to others and attendance into consideration when choosing the winner. It’s proving a hit with the young ProKickers who are all very keen to get their hands on it. All the winners are setting quite a standard for the others to follow!”
